Full Description
A practical book providing current and potential Incident Commanders with a broad understanding of what is expected of them, and the processes and systems that the British Fire and Rescue Service uses, to safely command an incident.
Fire and Rescue Incident Command provides a comprehensive guide to incident ground operations, from small house fires and road traffic accidents, to widespread wildfires, high-rise operations and major transport disasters. It explores:
* The tactics and strategies available at an incident
* The roles and responsibilities of the Incident Commander and those under his/her command
* The legal framework within which fire ground activities must operate
* Good communications practice and protocols
* The tactics needed to ensure the safety of the public, property and the firefighters on the front line
The overall aim of this book is to guide you through some of the key issues that face Incident Commanders in the modern fire and rescue service, to identify good practice, and to present real-life examples of a wide range of incidents and the lessons that can be learned.
